Easily target compare and contrast goals with this incredibly thorough, easy prep packet that will last you the entire IEP year!

Easily target compare and contrast goals with this incredibly thorough, easy prep packet that will last you the entire IEP year! This product includes all the compare and contrast passages and graphic organizers you need for evidence-based practice. The included Boom cards and Google slides make these compare and contrast activities just what you need for systematic intervention.

This scaffolded resource perfectly breaks down comparing and contrasting in a way that makes learning easy and successful for your students!

It includes the following:

  • Quiz: Great as a pre/post test to show progress.
  • Compare/Contrast Student Workbook: Interactive, print and go workbook to help you teach skills. See preview for examples!
  • Posters (2)
  • Keyword Sort: Sort comparing vs contrasting keywords/transition words.
  • Mini Visuals: Can be printed on Post Its. I use them for classroom carryover!
  • Compare/Contrast Examples Sort: Sort which situations you could use compare/contrast for and which situations are better for a different strategy.
  • 3 Levels of Compare/Contrast Worksheets: See more information below.
  • Complex Sentence Writing Worksheets: Two levels, one with more support and sentence starters.
  • Blank Venn Diagram
  • Editable, Text-Based Compare/Contrast Worksheet: You can add in your own text to this. You must have access to PowerPoint to use this.
  • A Google Slides™️ version of the worksheets so you can add text on the worksheets more easily.
  • A Boom cards™️ version of the cut and paste worksheets!

The three levels of worksheet are as follows:

1 – Includes pictures and descriptions that your students can cut and glue into the correct spot in a Venn diagram. There are 15 included.

2 – The same pictures as level 1 but without written descriptions. There are 15 included.

3 – Text-based comparing and contrasting. Also targets keywords and summarizing. I also included an editable version of these worksheets so you can use them with ANY text! There are 25 included.

In addition, some activities require cutting to be used as intended!

Here’s some reasons why other SLPs have loved my Compare and Contrast activities:

♥ ”I love that these are designed to provide scaffolding incrementally for students. The concepts are easy to use with many themes and learning topics. Thank you for updating the graphics to use with older students who are working on this skill. I also love the visuals for improving syntax for comparing/contrasting!” – Norah B.

♥ ”I really like the visuals. You can use them as cues on student’s desks or a cards you use in therapy. It really makes it easy for kids to see that you are talking about how things or the same, or when you want them to tell how things are different. I use it with junior high and high school students and they have also reported that the visuals help them!” – Elizabeth G.

♥ ”My students really enjoy this resource! I often try to have them come up with comparison’s on their own and then give the option of the provided facts. As always, this Speechy Musings resource does not disappoint!” – Madison S.

  235. Tami R. –

    I’ve just starting using this workbook and although the student I’m using it with doesn’t love it, (anything that remotely resembles work he does not love), it is a great resource for me in seeing what his skill level is and being able to expand from there. I’m looking forward to using it with other students.

  236. Ashley E. –

    An amazing resource! Thanks!

  237. Linda B. –

    Learning to compare and contrast is so important because it crosses all subject matters and all age groups. Like all your products, this is an excellent resource. There’s a small error on the pages that have pix of a fan and lamp–the instructions say compare and contrast a lamp and iron.

  699. Billie H. –

    I finally got a chance to take a look at this and I LOVE it!! I can’t wait to use it. This is such a difficult skill for some students to comprehend and this lays it out, step-by-step. I plan on using some of the sheets in IEP meetings to explain the skill and goal area, as some of my parents are not immediately sure what comparing and contrasting are either.

  700. Stephanie R. –

    I love how easy this is to use! She did all the work so that I don’t have to! Haha. It really is a great resource that targets teaching the skills, not just taking data on them.

You don’t miss a thing with your resources. Clear, repetitive in nature for our students, and based on evidence. You hit out of the park again!

    I have been using paper copies or static pdf with the resource for a couple of school years, however, I just downloaded to try the Boom Card addition. I used it three times today with three very different students (ELL, moderate disability, 10th grade ASD for articulation) and each student loved it. I was able to host interactive distance learning sessions without having to using screen share. It was smooth, comprehensive and age flexible which is a HUGE plus. Thank you, Shannon, once again for making a fantastic product.

  795. Eleanor D. –

    I used this resource for the first time today during a teletherapy session. What a great resource!

  796. LakotaSpeechie –

    Great resource- I’ve been able to use it sooner than expected because she added a BOOM card option that is AMAZING!

  797. Stacey B. –

    Great activity to be able to use as distance learning with some of my students. They enjoyed the activity I sent and parents emailed that it was nice to see these concepts broken down in a way that everyone could understand and make sense of. Thank you!!

  798. Karla W. –

    This resource does a great job of teaching students the important skill of comparing and contrasting. It breaks it down in a way that makes it easy to understand. I’m never disappointed with one of your products.

  799. Jamie B. –

    This is a great resource! I love the learning part at the beginning of this packet; it will allow many of the parents of my students to help them with their language goals. I was able to print this packet and “customize” it for younger and older students. Thanks!

  800. Katie N. –

    I love this resoure and am so happy I purchased it! I have used it for my distant learning by having students share the screen and use their keyboards to type things into the PDF document. I feel it works many levels of comparing and contrasting items. This is a great expressive and vocabulary resource! I also love the blank Vinn Diagram so I can make my own! I love Speech Musings items and have purchased several of her resources from TPT. I recommend this to anyone working on compare/contrast! Thanks for another great resource!!!

  842. Christina B. –

    This is a wonderful resource and really broke down everything students need to know not only to understand how to compare and contrast but how to complete activities to apply the skill – like filling in a Venn diagram. Thank you for this amazing resource!!

  843. Ting W. –

    This resource is expansive and offers options for varying degrees of support, beginning with choices and pictures and progressing to compare/contrast activities in which students must come up with similarities and differences on their own. The consistent use of Venn diagrams as a graphic organizer is very helpful for students and carries over to use in the classroom. I used this resource on paper while in school and was able to use it multiple times during remote teaching as well after our school closed due to COVID-19. Shannon made it super convenient to make this shift, as she put out the resource in different formats depending on whether you want to use it for distance learning or in person. Both formats worked great!

  844. Stephanie Braden –

    I love the visuals and how things are broken up into manageable steps.

  845. KC SLP –

    These visuals are EXACTLY what my students have been needing in order to connect the dots with comparing and contrasting.

    This is one of my favorite resources for in-person therapy!

The introduction into the concepts and the vocabulary really help outline the language needed to compare/contrast. It’s awesome that it’s an editable PDF as well so I can share my screen and use this resource during distance learning. I printed out the entire document and made a grab and go compare and contrast binder for when we’re in person again.

  945. Kendra Thompson –

    Great resource!

  946. Jaclyn C. –

    This is a great resource!! It went through all terms in detail and gave students a chance to practice as we went. I really like that I could choose the higher leveled sheets at the end for my grade 6s, but still can use this resource if I end up teaching a lower grade. Thanks!

  947. RussellingFeathersForward –

    Not only are there great activities, but these visuals are priceless!

  948. Kila M. –

    I love this resource and my children enjoy it.

  953. chelsea A. –

    Great resource to target compare and contrast.

  954. Nastaran Kahrobaei –

    Such a great resource! I love how detailed it is

  955. Joan G. –

    This is a great resource for teaching comparing and contrasting. I open it with Doc Hub and project it on the white board so we can work on some as a group, then I give students individual sheets (paper/pencil or PDFs on their chrome books) to fill in independently.

  956. Sarah Dubrow –

    Love this resource! So many visuals that have helped my students greatly!

  957. Julia D. –

    I think this skill has been lost on some kids because there is always so much going on in the curriculum, so I like this to take a step back!

  958. Debra B. –

    My students actually LIKE these “worksheets”. I don’t normally use worksheets in my therapy but this has been a great resource to grab off the shelf or off the hard drive and use with success.

  959. Tara F. –

    I loved this for my students to help with understanding of Compare/Contrast. It put all the pieces together in a way they could understand it, even without me explaining after we had examples. Thanks for a great product!

  960. Yvette S. –

    This is such a wonderful and thorough resource! I love how all of SM products incorporate teaching aspects. It’s so helpful! The only thing I wish this resource had was real pictures instead of illustrations but that’s mainly because I work with older students. I’m sure the fun illustrations work well with younger students.

  961. Kelli T. –

    Love it!

  962. SydneyE –

    I wish I would’ve purchased this resource sooner. With the growing amount of students on my caseload with this goal, I am constantly reaching for this activity!

  963. Megan H. –

    This resource has been great with varying age levels. The beginning level content is great for my elementary students and the paragraphs are great for my middle school students! Thanks for the awesome resource!

  968. SpeakEazySLP –

    This was great for my students! I love all of the visuals and how stories are included. Thank you for creating leveled activities!

  969. Meghan H. –

    I love the differentiation and leveling provided in this packet, it allows to easily teach and scaffold the skills of comparing/contrasting!

  970. Jessica T. –

    Great resource to have to hone on these specific skills. I have so many of Speechy Musings resources and they are used frequently!

  971. Kayla R. –

    This unit is perfect for comparing/contrasting, which a lot of my students need some help with! I love the variety of activities it includes.

  972. Nikki P. –

    This resource provides a systemic, differentiated way to teach the conncept of comparing/contrasting. It’s great for a variety of ages and really breaks the concepts down through direct instruction. One of my favorite low/no prep language activities!

  973. Rebecca H. –

    The love the approach this resource uses to teach concepts of comparing/contrasting. This is a great no/low prep resouce.

  974. Susan W. –

    I am so happy this was updated to virtual. I find myself using the most basic diagram style the most.

  975. Dorian Sobel –

    Another great resource from Speechy Musings!

  976. Lee L. –

    Great resource!

  977. Heather C. –

    I love this resource for teaching students about comparing and contrasting! I highly recommend it!

  979. Itty Bitty Speech –

    Wonderful resource! Thanks!

  980. Shireen G. –

    Amazing product!! Used it to work with a child with DLD.

  981. The Elementary Speechy –

    Great resource

  982. Breanna D. –

    A great resource for older students, but not quite my first graders, lol!

  983. Jennifer B. –

    I’m really happy with this resource (And EVERY item purchased from Speechy Musings!). This is a great resource to have on hand that you will use year, after year!

  984. Jade M. –

    One of my FAVORITE Speechy Musings products. This is something that I use frequently with my 3rd-5th grade students. They find it engaging, and I love that it is so low-prep. Thanks for another great resource! 🙂

  985. Amber Koutnik –

    Great for distance learning!

  986. Christine S. –

    This is a great low prep resource.

  987. Rachel L. –

    excellent resource

  988. Kelley Opiola Johnson –

    Lots of good visuals to choose from.

  989. SUPPLY ACCT 5. –

    great producr

  990. Jillian Gabriel –

    My students loved it!

  991. Elyssa R. –

    This was perfect for distance learning when creating a venn diagram became challenging. Love the structure and setup of the resource and how complex it gets. Perfect for my middle schoolers that are at various levels.

  992. maria Garcia –

    I love this product. It was exactly what I needed during distance learning. I still use it even now when we are back in person teaching.

  993. Aisuluu B. –

    Wonderful resource!!

  994. Janet M. –

    Shannon breaks down this complex task with great visuals, simple explanations and lots of examples that will appeal to a broad range of students. I’ve used the task online with student/s providing content & me scribing. Very engaging & teachers have commented on their students’ growth in this area as a result of therapy.

  995. Leslie Morris –

    Love this, just like I love all your products!!

  996. Courtney T. –

    Loved the visuals to target a complex subject!

  997. Megan H. –

    Great resource! Great addition to our speech program!

  998. a V. –

    Great Resource!

    Thank you

  999. Ashley W. –

    Love these resources, they make teaching and intervention so easy with step by step direction

  1000. Rachel B. –

    I love this product!

  1001. Diana H. –

    I currently have a lot of students on my caseload working on compare/contrast and the visuals and worksheets provided in this resource are so helpful in teaching them the skill and providing support as needed. 1000% would recommend to any other SLP targeting this skill!

  1002. Ali Peterson –

    So comprehensive and helpful! I love watching difficult concepts “click” with this resource! My students are engaged and it’s easy to print and go.

  1003. Nichole C. –

    I was looking for a new resource in this exact area and I love this one to use with my students. It’s not too “little kid” and my students definitely appreciated it!

  1004. Katie R. –

    This helped simplify comparing and contrasting items for my students. I love how speech musings focuses on teaching the skill rather than just completing tasks.

  1005. Lauren V. –

    Why is teaching comparing and contrasting so difficult!? This resource makes it so much easier and organized. My students have definitely benefited from this material. This truly is no-prep, which is AMAZING. I use it frequently. Highly recommend!

  1006. Megan L. –

    Such a great resource! The instructional component is so helpful to introduce compare and contrast to student! This is an amazing resource!

  1007. Little n Loud –

    I love how this breaks down the process of comparing and contrasting but my favorite is that it also works on comparing and contrasting from reading passages. Thank you!

  1008. Brittney Lyskoski –

    These visuals are perfect! Clear and easy to use in therapy. Exactly what we all need. Thank you!

  1009. Jessica Fracasse –

    my students found this very helpful and I found it was a good way to engage them

  1010. Ashley R. –

    I love how this resource used great visuals to help me explain comparing and contrasting to my middle school students. But what I loved even more was how age-appropriate this resource was for my older students. Great resource!

  1011. Deanna S. –

    This is a great resource to use when you begin targeting comparing and contrasting in therapy

  1012. Brooke R. –

    The organization and progression of the activities in this resource are amazing like all of the materials from Speechy Musings. My students especially love the Venn Diagrams!

  1013. Claire T. –

    Great resource with great visuals

  1014. L T. –

    Great resource to use with my students that have varying levels of abilities

  1015. Mackenzie P. –

    A great resource to target comparing!

  1016. Brenna A. –

    Have mostly used version of product in Boom Deck but loved it for virtual learning. Engaging and great tool for teaching.

  1017. Carly M. –

    This is a super comprehensive and quality resource that I can use with a wide range of my elementary students. It’s well thought out and completely worth the cost. Not only are my students comparing and contrasting in speech therapy, but with this resource they are also seeing how they can use this skill in the classroom and at home.

  1018. Nahri L. –

    This is a great, methodical way to teach the concepts of comparing and contrasting. There are plenty of visuals, and I love how the levels are differentiated.

  1019. Barbara B. –

    I love the visuals and appreciate resources that support higher-order thinking skills in a tangible way.

  1020. Atindi P. –

    I have used this with a number of students already. The Venn diagram break-downs have been really helpful.

  1021. Jennifer K. –

    I think this is a great product/resource. I haven’t found a great way to utilize every page — that’s a lot of paper to run off — so it worked better for me on a distance platform. But lately I have been uploading the pdf to the iPad and then annotating it. I think the best feature is the paragraphs for compare/contrast. I work with older students and I like that it doesn’t have too many/any graphics to make it seem “young”.

  1022. Claire J. –

    I have many kids working on comparing and contrasting and this resource is perfect! It breaks it down and uses the venn diagram. I like that it has targets and summarizes everything so nicely.

  1023. Heidi L. –

    My students loved this resource and the in-depth discussions that followed. It’s an added bonus to provide the students a paper and pencil task as opposed to always relying on technology. We will get quite a bit of use from this product.

  1024. Cleo D. –

    This is a great package – I have many students who need this practice

  1025. Paola Jacobson –

    Used it for 3rd Grade and 4th Grade. Great resource.

  1026. Janine C. –

    Always been a fan of your resources. This has been really helpful in teaching my kiddos step by step how to use the venn diagram for comparing and constrasting. Thank you!

  1027. Lauren H. –

    I love how detailed this unit is. It works well for several students on my caseload that work on Comparing and Contrasting.

  1028. AshleyTheSLP –

    I really love how leveled this resource is. My students have been comparing and contrasting independently since using this unit to teach the skill.

  1029. Eliana L. –

    Would recommend. User friendly.

  1030. Chaydee L. –

    Awesome, quality resource for describing, comparing, and contrasting. Love that it is leveled and includes handouts/strategies.

  1031. Krystina W. –

    Well planned and designed activities that are engaging and offer lots of guided therapy practice activities

  1032. Theresa S. –

    I love this resource! I can always count on Speechy Musings for a no-prep, well-thought out, evidence based resource. Not only can you work on comparing and contrasting, but also formulating compound and complex sentences.

  1033. Barbara T. –

    Another great resource. Awesome, quality. Love that it is leveled and includes handouts/strategies.

  1034. Michelle G. –

    I appreciate the leveling, instructions, and visuals.

  1035. The Octopus SLP –

    Great leveling and clean look. Having the editable worksheet is a nice extra touch especially when working with older students.

  1036. Chelsea N. –

    Absolutely love that this font looks like it is made for my middle schoolers – they even comment that this doesn’t look like it has “baby stuff” on it like some other worksheets sometimes have. That’s huge for kids. The organizers are key – and a great for carryover. Thank you!

  1037. Stephanie C. –

    I have used this resource with speech/language students from grades 1-3, and the different levels have been really helpful! I love targeting same/different, some/all, and describing using this resource.

  1038. alibeeSLP –

    I use this resource every day to teach such an important skill across my entire caseload! I love that it can easily be adapted for the student’s ability and needs. This is a must have resource for middle and high school SLPs!

  1039. Lauren K. –

    great resource!

  1040. Zissel B. –

    Great resource !

  1041. Rachael L. –

    What a great resource! This kept my students engaged and I liked that they could complete the task on their own or with support as needed from me. I even used it with my mixed groups. I had my artic and phono students “teach” their peers about the two items they compared while utilizing their speech targets. What I love most about this resource is the increasing level of complexity of tasks. Thank you once again for another great product!!

  1042. Thought Bubble SLP –

    Love all of your products!

  1043. Brooke L. –

    Great resource!

  1044. Deborah E –

    This has been a go to resource for compare-contrast; nicely organized with vocabulary the students can relate to.

  1045. Elizabeth B. –

    This is great for my virtual students. I’ve used it as an online lesson, then sent home worksheets for the student to complete on his own. I love pairing it up with the EET. Great resource!

  1046. Madison S. –

    My students really enjoy this resource! I often try to have them come up with comparison’s on their own and then give the option of the provided facts. As always, this Speechy Musings resource does not disappoint!

  1047. Whitney D. –

    Great product.

  1048. Alexandra Z. –

    The boom card portion of this was excellent!

  1049. Kimberly S. –

    So many perfect Speechy Musings resources and not enough time to use them all!
    This resource is exactly what I needed for targeting comparing/contrasting and can be easily adapted for mixed groups and different students needs.

  1050. Suzanne D. –

    I use this as our warm up at the beginning of the session for my kids with compare/contrast, describing, and vocabulary goals.

  1051. Darcy K. –

    I love that you can use this packet for students needing varying levels of support and that reading passages are included.

  1052. Spazzy Speech –

    Love this!!

  1053. Barbara Jenson –

    Love the easy to use ideas. The quiz is great information to where to start introducing comparing/contrasting

  1054. Synergize Learning Resources –

    Loved that this can be appropriate for a variety of grade levels. My kiddos really enjoyed the sorting venn diagrams.

  1055. Your Words Matter –

    Great visuals

  1056. ThelmaJean G. –

    All your products are amazing love them

  1057. Ashlie E. –

    Great resource!!

  1058. Britiany Aldridge –

    Works great for what I needed

  1059. Hayley G the SLP –

    Very helpful, thanks!

  1060. Norah Breindel –

    I love that these are designed to provide scaffolding incrementally for students. The concepts are easy to use with many themes and learning topics. Thank you for updating the graphics to use with older students who are working on this skill. I also love the visuals for improving syntax for comparing/contrasting!

  1061. Amy S. –

    My upper elementary language students in speech therapy really benefit from using this resource for targeting naming similarities/differences and comparing/contrasting. It introduces Venn diagrams and begins with a bank of answer choices for the first few compare/contrast exercises, then eventually fades out the answer choices so that the learner must generate his/her own details to compare/contrast. I like to put these in dry erase pockets for learners to use in person as my district is currently in person, but the editable Google doc is also helpful for a virtual option!

  1062. Elizabeth Greenwood –

    I really like the visuals. You can use them as cues on student’s desks or a cards you use in therapy. It really makes it easy for kids to see that you are talking about how things or the same, or when you want them to tell how things are different. I use it with junior high and high school students and they have also reported that the visuals help them!

  1063. ELIZABETH R. –

    This is a great product for working on comparing and contrasting.

  1064. Anna D. –

    great product!

  1065. Nicole H. –

    This resource is great for teaching about comparing and contrasting! I can scaffold across sessions. I have already seen improvements in my students’ comparing and contrasting skills! Thank you!

  1066. Arlinda N. –

    I had to start thinking outside of the box for my older students. This is an awesome tool for your older students beyond just labeling.

  1067. Laura L. –

    I feel like I haven’t yet explored all I can do with this resource. So far I have used the cut and glue level activities, which my students really like. I cut out the descriptions and place them face down and let students in groups pick one out. My students think they are playing a game when we do this! This activity is a great way to work on vocabulary and using more complex sentence structure as I have kids use the visual they have made to make comparing and contrasting statements.

  1068. Kelly P. –

    Great for introducing and teaching the skill of compare/contrast! I love that there are so many pieces of text to support.

  1069. Brittany C. –

    This resource was great for my older students working on comparing and contrasting! It helped scaffold the skills involved in compare/contrast and works a lot on the vocabulary that they need to know as well.

  1070. Charlotte G. –

    Great resource to have on hand.

  1071. Haylie M. –

    This is a great visual resource to help kiddos make semantic connections with simple vocabulary. I love the variety and the practice it can provide the kiddos that are struggling in this area.

  1072. Melissa N. –

    I like having multiple cut and paste activities to practice the compare and contrast. I wish that the booklet for compare and contrast was more differentiated. I something with less text per page for some of my students that become easily overwhelmed.

  1073. The Speech Man –

    Great resource! Easy to use and comprehensive!

  1074. Kasey F. –

    My students loved this resource. Thank you for making this available!

  1075. Megan T. –

    Really great resource!

  1076. Esther C. –

    Another great resource. This has so many activities on so many levels. It increases in complexity, provides such great, clear instruction. It’s made targeting comparing and contrasting a breeze.

  1077. Courtney C. –

    The visuals work great for my students!

  1078. Hannah G. –

    This activity is great to use across a variety of language abilities! It is also helpful that you can progress to student to a higher level when they are ready.

  1079. Justin Y. –

    So many examples, and such great vocabulary! easy go-to for those times when you don’t have time to plan!!

  1080. Elissa Kaufman –

    Thank you!

  1081. Ariella I. –

    I have an older student who has been really struggling with this skill, and as a new clinician, I was having trouble figuring out how to target this skill with him. I’ve been using the Level 1 worksheets with him and I feel like we are finally getting somewhere! I love how this level focuses on this skill more receptively first, because this student really struggles with the expression side of comparing & contrasting, even with visuals. This resource has everything I need to target this skill! I love all of your resources and how they are all so well thought out! Your resources have helped me survive my CFY!

  1137. Janice E. –

    I used this in language therapy sessions for 6th, 7th and 8th grade students. They never knew how much comparing and contrasting is required in the curriculum! It also coincided with the standard being taught in English/Language Arts comparing and contrasting themes. I also used it with lower level students and started at the very beginning. It works! Thank you so much for this great resource.

    My students found this resource engaging , I highly recommend it.

    Compare and Contrasting is becoming a huge part of the standardized testing within my state and can be a very tricky task for kids with overall lower language skills.

I love this resource and how it breaks down these skills for my students.

  1236. Melissa W. –

    Easy to use!

    This is a well thought out resource! Part of the reason I purchased was because it’s cut and paste—so much time can be wasted with my kiddos who have trouble reading/spelling while they struggle to get the words written down. They’re already working on these skills in other places, my focus is on increasing their language. This allows them the ability to verbal reason without the added pressure of writing. Highly recommend!
